So I started cutting about 1 month ago maybe 2 idk.
I really dont know what to say, I will say these.
I actually have a fairly good family life. I was the youngest of 7 kids. My dad is always busy and cant do things with me. My mom works a lot.
This is why I cut (I think.)
I do it most often when I'm angry
When I'm alone / no one home
Selfish....so I cut because I deserve it.
And..you will frown on me. but sometimes for attention. I know I feel like ****, but its the truth.
And I cut a lot to get rid of my anger and guilt towards those decisions.
Possible trigger:

The worlds doesn't need selfish **** like me.
Am I selfish for posting?

Hello NathanMAqpie50: I'm sorry to read of your struggles. No you are not selfish for posting. This is what PC is here for... so welcome! PsychCentral is a great place to gain support as well as to obtain mental health related information. There are many knowledgeable & caring members here. The more you post, & reply to others' posts, the more you'll get out of the time you spend here. So keep posting!

From what you wrote, it sounds as though you are struggling mightily at the present time. Cutting is not the worst thing in the world. But it certainly can be dangerous, as you well know. I don't know if you are receiving any mental health services at the present time. If not, I'd like to encourage you to reach out to someone, either a mental health professional, or a trusted family member or friend. My best wishes to you...

NathanMAqpie50, I'm sorry you are hurting, I wish I have inspiring words for you to make you feel a bit better! Unfortunately I'm so messed up but what I can say, is, that the people here at PC are understanding and supportive and it helps a lot just knowing that some one out there is taking the time reading what you have to say and the 'hugs', this is so sweet!

If I can make a suggestion, I had horrible thoughts earlier today and then after posting a thread I felt some kind of relief because I could say how I feel, I didn't have to keep it to myself, so maybe if you feel lonely, angry and the urge to cut you can write a thread and say how you feel at that moment, see if it helps!

Best wishes to you
Sun

Hi, I'm sorry to hear you're struggling so much. It is not selfish to post here, it's why it was set up. I'm not in a place to give you happy thoughts, but I do send care.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
